you can't turn around without seeing the blasted woman. I don't buy magazines, I don't have a TV, I don't watch X factor, I don't read sleb blogs yet you just can't get away from the woman. Today I walked into town, she was in shop windows advertising her fake hair, in waterstones advertising her book (probably about how "brave" she has been) I just cannot understand the mania over her. I mean, what exactly has she done that is so chuffing amazing ? Had her husband cheat on her and eventually kicked him to the curb after about the 8th occasion ? It's hardly unusual, is it ? Adn why does everyone keep describing her as "brave" ? Brave is keeping on going after you've had your legs blown off in a roadside bomb in Afghanistan. And don't get me started on the racist attack.
I cannot believe that this woman is generally accepted as a good role model for girls, she appears to me to be the complete epitome of a simpering moron, trussed up like a Christmas turkey. I despair for our daughters

Good, I feel better after letting that out

She is not soooo nice she is fake nice and patronising with it everytime I hear yer a little star I cringe , I also don't understand why certain people think if you do not like her you are jealous , the media hold her up as being the ideal beauty which is pressuring our dc into thinking that is how you should look, what they don't say is the fact it costs her an astronomical amount to look like that , she used to slag everyone off before x factor then soon became all sweetness and light I don't buy it at all.

MummyDayAndNightCare · 22/10/2010 22:06

She was found NOT guilty of racial charge. Tired of people always dropping that in when she is clearly not racist.

Hedgeblunder · 22/10/2010 22:07

Definitly fibilou- I've only ever seen grown men sling punches that cause that effect.
She wasn't a kid when she did that either. She's banned in my house along with katie price, total lowest of the low scum.

Hedgeblunder · 22/10/2010 22:08

She's not racist but she batters people. Got it.

Fibilou · 22/10/2010 22:10

Well actually being found not guilty doesn't mean it didn't happen. It just means that there was insufficient evidence to prove beyond reasonable doubt that there was a racist element present in the attack.
The cps are hugely careful about charges of this nature, there is no way a high profile celebrity would have been charged with a racially aggravated offence unless there was good supporting evidence.

she is a big haired batterer

Hedgeblunder · 22/10/2010 22:13

Yes Scottish mummy I reckon that's where she hides her knuckledusters

I have no problem with CC, i watched her in Celebrity Apprentice (before she became the 'nation's sweetheart') she was actually funny and down to earth. I do have a problem with the media's obsession with her . She is just a pretty girl from the North with no real talent. I really hate the assumption that if a woman says something negative about another women then you must be jealous. I think people are just sick and tired of people with little talent being shoved down our throats each day.

Fibilou · 22/10/2010 22:14

having done some further digging, she was not "found not guilty" of the racial element, the charge was discontinued before the trial. This could have happened for a multitude of reasons, CPS discontinue things for the most random reason; it could have bee a technical matter or that a witness refused to give evidence.

She is starting to look like a chocolate furry lolipop. She bores the arse off of me :)

Fibilou · 22/10/2010 22:16

and why would she not be racist ? Because she's got a couple of black friends ?

OP posts:
scottishmummy · 22/10/2010 22:16

cheryl is testament to saturation media will raise public awareness but not necessarily generate positive regard or rapport

Hedgeblunder · 22/10/2010 22:17

I would like to point out as well that her skin is getting darker than the mixed race contestants on x factor.

forehead · 22/10/2010 22:21

Some people believe that just because you have a couple of black friends or are dating a black/mixed race man then you can't be racist. This is rubbish. I know of a woman who is married to a black man, but doesn't like black women.
I also know of a black woman who has a white boyfriend, but despises white people

katiehellcatkitty · 22/10/2010 22:21

the sainted cheryl cole, the only person in the history of the world to put on weight while suffering from oops, I mean, malaria, she is so special, she put on weight while being at death's door with for but two weeks

fluffybitingguineapigs · 22/10/2010 22:24

GrinSM!

What she did was vile and scummy and there is no excuse for it. She may have been young and possibly off her face but doing that to someone so much more vulnerable than her said a lot about her and her values.

HB if I felt a pang for her, it was more my own guilt at being hard nosed to someone asking my help - like shootin' fish in a barrel. But then I really don't regret it either - would have done that to anyone sleb or not who had done that

feistychickfightingthebull · 22/10/2010 22:25

YANBU, I cannot stand Chezza, she is as fake as they come and totally talentless. I hate how she keeps on going ' you have fire in your belly' bloody hell woman. Imo she is a thug who got lucky that Simon Cowell likes her. I think it is a joke when I hear her being described as the nation's sweetheart, she's hardly won the Nobel Peace Prize has she to be deserving of such a title

feistychickfightingthebull · 22/10/2010 22:27

That is true Katie, she does seem to have put o weight actually. Maybe the malaria was a weight gaining type of malaria exclusive to celebrities

feistychickfightingthebull · 22/10/2010 22:28

I am with you on that one Forehead, a lot of people say Chezza cannot be racist because she was married to a black guy, well sorry she can be. She probably only likes the black guy she married and not all the other black people. These things happen

Fibilou · 22/10/2010 22:30

fluffy, i am intrigued. what do you do for a living to have made it into court when it must have been pretty tight security ?
